LOS ANGELES LAKERS 119 – HOUSTON ROCKETS 117
In another game without Garuba’s participation the Rockets were about to give the Lakers a very big scare, who had the game under control at the last minute and ended up praying that a final triple by Kevin Porter would not enter and lose it. Two shots from Jalen Green, who hadn’t scored in the fourth quarter until those final sixty seconds, made Staples shake. The victory remained there despite everything and the star trio of Los Angeles, James, Davis and Westbrook, was able to assert the 84 points that they scored between them. Third in a row for Vogel’s.
DETROIT PISTONS 89 – MILWAUKEE BUCKS 117
Again many problems for Cade Cunningham, the first of the generation of 2021: 2/14 in shots, with nine consecutive errors in the triples, for 6 points. His team was not much better than him. The Bucks, with Giannis (28) and Connaughton and Nwora (16), won the first three quarters and closed without suffering.
PHOENIX SUNS 112 – NEW ORLEANS PELICANS 100
Brilliant comeback for the Suns, who started with problems and ended in a big way. The Pels ran out of air and went 1-7 with many doubts about Zion’s future. To highlight the 18 assists of Paul, that Frank Kaminsky was the best substitute for Phoenix, that Mikal Bridges was the top scorer for Phoenix and the non-participation of the Spanish Willy Hernangómez.
UTAH JAZZ 119 – SACRAMENTO KINGS 113
In another duel the Mitchell won Donovan, who went up to 36 points. Conley (30) and Gobert (12 + 20) accompanied him well. The Jazz took control with five minutes to go in a game that was not easy.
DALLAS MAVERICKS 110 – MIAMI HEAT 125
The Miami team has only lost one game so far. In Dallas he put the Mavs in place, sweeping in attack and breaking a record. Read the chronicle.
